Email from R. Brooks Borcherding, President and Chief Executive Officer of NaviSite, Inc. to all employees of NaviSite, Inc., dated April 5, 2011:
NaviSite,
At the moment I’m in the UK for the week to visit customers, analysts and spend time with the NaviSite UK team. It’s an exciting time for NaviSite in the UK as we’ve launched the UK Cloud project and will soon have the 3rd NaviCloud node in production. Similar to the rest of the company, our innovative enterprise-class cloud offering is accelerating our transformation in the UK; leading to new customer engagements and strategic partnerships that will dramatically increase our market presence and scale outside the USA.
I also wanted to take this opportunity to update you on our progress with Time Warner Cable. As you may be aware, the shareholder meeting has been scheduled for the morning of April 20th when we hope to receive shareholder approval for the sale. If approved, we expect that we will then close the sale and formally become part of Time Warner Cable on Thursday, April 21st. I remain extremely enthusiastic about this new opportunity for NaviSite and all our employees as we will move forward with the backing of a strong Fortune 500 company. Personally I’ve had the opportunity to spend significant time with the Time Warner Cable executive team and continue to be incredibly impressed by the people, the culture and their sincere desire to implement a successful merger of our two companies. Their intention is simply to maintain our existing strategy and structure but invest in our innovation and people to accelerate our success!
The integration teams from both companies are now fully engaged and focused on the critical tasks leading up to Day One to ensure NaviSite is best poised to accelerate our success going forward as part of the Time Warner Cable family. I appreciate that everyone has questions around the details and what to expect over the coming weeks leading to and following the close. We expect to have a comprehensive FAQ from Time Warner Cable distributed in the coming days that will address many of the common questions and concerns. We will also be scheduling another all-hands call in the near future to continue our communications and provide updates on our overall business.
As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or anyone on the leadership team with your thoughts, questions, or concerns.
All the best,
R. Brooks Borcherding

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement include, but are not limited to, uncertainties as to the timing of the Merger; uncertainties as to how many of NaviSite stockholders will tender their shares of Common Stock in the Merger; the possibility that competing offers will be made; the possibility that various closing conditions for the Merger may not be satisfied or waived, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the Merger; and other risks and uncertainties discussed in documents filed with the SEC by NaviSite and the solicitation/recommendation statement and proxy statement and other relevant materials to be filed by NaviSite. Although NaviSite believes the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, NaviSite cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither NaviSite nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements.
